First Claim
1. A system for setting up a working environment comprising:
- a base element;
a pillar element having a cable duct and adapted to be supported on said base element;
a transverse connecting element with cable duct; and
a carrier element with mounting means for a working surface,whereinsaid elements are made from profile bars of aluminum material,said pillar element includes a means for heightwise adjust, and has at least one at least substantially U-shaped profile portion includes at least substantially mutually parallel side wall parts, said profile portion further including first and second projections which extend in the longitudinal direction thereof from the mutually facing surfaces of said side wall parts and face towards each other,said means for heightwise adjustment includes a holder having at least one holding portion adapted to be introduced into said profile portion of said pillar element and adapted to be movable therein for said heightwise adjustment, and a support means on said holder for said carrier element,said holding portion includes slide elements and fixing means for holding said slide elements and said holding portion in releasably fixable contact with said projections on said profile portion.

Abstract
A system for setting up a working environment includes base elements of profile bars adapted to stand on a floor surface and pillar elements of profile bars, at least one incorporating a cable duct. The pillar elements are mounted on the base elements. A transverse connecting element is a profile bar and incorporates a cable duct and interconnects the pillar elements at a spacing from each other. Carrier elements of profile bars are mounted to the pillar elements. The pillar elements have substantially U-shaped profile portions including parallel side wall parts, and projections which extend in the longitudinal direction from the side wall parts and face towards each other. Heightwise adjustment is made by a holder having a holding portion introduced into the profile portions of the pillar elements and movable therein for heightwise adjustment. The holding portion includes slide elements and fixing elements for holding the slide elements and the holding portion in releasable fixed contact with longitudinal projections on the profile portions by the fixing elements.
